We are now considering some options related to the future of our tactic testing. It is extremely time consuming to use simulate match / instant result for so many matches. But we have three options:
1. Significantly lower the amount of matches tested (Going down from 186 matches to 40) and use simulate match (the "most accurate per match" option)
2. I have managed to lower the assistant manager's tendency to change formation, from around 30% of the time, to around 10% of the time. So this is definitely a viable option now. The reason for this is that the assistant manager changes to the same formations every single test, so it is the same for every tactic, which means that the accuracy of the test won't be too much affected by it. And this is the option that gives us the highest amount of matches to test. So this is definitely one to consider.
3. The third option is extremely accurate, but in this option, we won't be able to sort tactics by points, only by goals scored per match, goals conceded per match, goal difference per match, ccc per match and ccc against per match. This is also with holiday mode, but opposed to in option 2, we ONLY count the MINUTES the manager has played with the tested tactic. This information would then be taken from the tactics analysis window in the game.
Thoughts: There are many things to consider here, and I think we will have to do some math on it before we decide. 186 matches add a crazy amount of accuracy compared to 40 matches, so the tweaked holiday option (nr 2), and the accurate holiday option (nr 3) have to be considered in this math piece.
